It wasn't the R rating that made that film better. We didn't need to see Affleck's ass in the shower, fuck said once, or some extra blood to make that film better. It was improved because there were some extra scenes that better fleshed out the story.

You missed the point. I like the ultimate edition more but most of the parts that caused it to be rated R don't necessarily make it better. The added scenes that flesh out the story do and most of that content wouldn't be R rated.

Adam Cozad, who penned the script for “The Legend of Tarzan,” is in negotiations to write the screenplay for “Suicide Squad 2,” an individual with knowledge of the project told TheWrap.

No director is currently attached to the Warner Bros. sequel, although Mel Gibson was reportedly courted by the studio. David Ayer, who wrote and directed the 2016 movie, will not return for the sequel.

The Tracking Board’s Jeff Sneider, who is also one of the hosts of Meet The Movie Press, discussed the sequel in this week’s episode. While the project is still looking for a director, Sneider brought up a new name that might be another contender for the directing gig. Sneider did point out early in the show that this is just what he has heard as no deals have been made.

“So the name that I have heard, who could very well be in the mix: Jaume Collet-Serra. He’s a home-grown filmmaker for Warner Bros, that’s where he did House of Wax, Orphan, Unknown [and] Run All Night.”

It’s unknown when the DC Comics project would shoot, given the ensemble’s busy schedule, including Smith who is already attached to shoot Ang Lee’s “Gemini Man” and Disney’s “Aladdin,” for which he will voice the Genie. Insiders say the studio would love to be up and running by March.
